Italy put a mixed roster, including file good players who missed their calls as being a step below starters, the two likely top 20 and 5 players that was not saved (probably we never did, as luckily we don't need - a saved player would have lost at least 4-6 weeks of training and that means he falls two primary pops behind many others), but -even worse- players proposed by managers who won a contest - none of them ever touch Italy jersey again.
I also did some experiments, but I have to say that team was not so horrible at the end. I think Malaysia was home court, if I am not wrong, but it was a good, nice match. Nothing to do with officials :p a good performance of yours anyway
